Feeling Empty Inside

[ScarsAndStitches]

I'm feeling so empty inside right now, and I wish something would happen to make me feel something again.

This is probably bad terrible advice but when I was numbed out I drinking helped bring me to surface level or make me emotional grant it I was hysterical but at least I felt human... Be safe

I was about to say, it was the same with me but with psychedelics.

I don't know how you would feel about this @ScarsAndStitches but is volunteering in any capacity feasible for you? Studies have shown it may help.

The worst coping methods are often the best ones lol... nothing relieves me as much as cutting.

I have volunteered before, and It didn't do anything to help with the emptiness. Plus with the health problems I have now it's not even really an option for me.

Hi @ScarsAndStitches i don't know your age or background but that empty feeling is something people experience with a number of conditions such as depression or ocd or anxiety. Has it been building for a while or suddenly happened?

Second that. Waste of time for me as well.

It's been building for a long time inside me.

Listen to some music? Watch a funny stand up comedy special? Masturbate?

I wish I knew how to replace peoples emptiness with feeling, then i'd be a millionaire.

I bet the people you were helping appreciated it.

Haha none of these things work. Used to love music. Doesn't mean anything to me now. Used to always find stuff to watch on tv. Doesn't interest me anymore. I'm going to no comment on the masturbation. Well and truly broken

Oh yeah you're deep in the pits of depression... Hopefully it lifts even a little so you can enjoy some stuff... Only thing that makes me feel anything lately is somber music... But during winter break it was nothing... Not a damn thing. It's truly ass.

(Sorry if this is insensitive, it's meant to be well meaning)

No it's fine. imjust don't know how to get myself out of this? There's only one thing that I've found in the last 7 months but I'm not sure if it's helping or not.

What was it? And yeah I got no advice... It kind of lifted for me when I started having drinks with coworkers more often.... Being around people helps

Haha I'd have to probably change job before I enjoy work colleagues again.

The first time i mentioned feeling empty i was diagnosed with borderline.

I don't feel empty inside. If anything, I feel too full. Too many feelings and thoughts simultaneously. I can't handle it.
